Hef is a bull owned by airhart, but I don't have any idea what he is exactly. The Champ Charolais at SA this year was a Hef if I understood it right.  The guy that told me that had a very good bit small red Hef calf, but he told me it would never get very big.  He said hardly any Hef calves do...

Beef QA recommendations are really for calves that are headed to feedlots.  Cows in a synchronization program really aren't  part of the food cycle - at least not till they are too old to include.  By then they are hamburger anyway.  You also don't get the tissue damage from hormones that you do...

The cow will tell you if something is wrong.

I was joking.  Your pictures were just fine.  I just like your scenery.

I've had vets tell me 1.5 inch is better for intramuscular route on cows.

I'm impressed Lautner's do that and require that.

Angle your camera up so you can catch a mountain in the background!  Nothing prettier than a baldy.

Most of the show calf world seems oblivious to Trich.  Does anybody know if Lautners or any of the other bigger outfits that lease bulls have them tested or not?  They frankly need to be tested everytime they come home. I've seen two commercial herds in my area ruined with it. For those that...

You need to get more oil back in their skin.  Numerous options. Things we use: Two big squirts of mane & tail + a cup of vinegar in a 5 gal bucket.  Fill with water and then pour it over them after washing/rinsing.  Let it set a few minutes before combing/blowing. Show sheen mixed with a...

There really are a lot of 10k registered angus bulls selling to commercial angus herds.  It's not funny money.  When common heifers are brings $2-$3k, it's no big deal for a bull to bring 5x that. There are plenty of sales you can't hardly touch a good solid bull for $10k right now.  The price...

Sorry I can't resist. ;) ;) ;)  It's market failure when it comes to shorthorn cattle but the rest of us need to listen to the market when it comes to antibiotic use/hormones, etc? I think the color discrimination is a bunch of bull also, but the public is just as intelligent worrying about...

It's unlikely those could be registered as anything.  I know the American Angus Association doesn't have a program that allows it, I'm not sure about the Charolais association. As a word of advice though, a crossbred heifer out of an Angus bull would have a very difficult time competing in an...

Mike is a very good guy and wants his calves in good homes.  If you buy one from him, ask questions from him and do what he tells you.

We've got crossbred heifers that can show as ORB in Houston.  Our heifers are very competetive at any level of show you want to go to in Texas.  The last scramble heifer I sent to Houston won her class in both the scramble show and the regular junior show.  I'm just now getting them weaned and...

I'm pretty sure Newman's aunt won Fort Worth, San Antonio, and Houston all in the same year back in the late 70s or early 80s. There have been several kids win all three shows, but I don't remember if any did two in one year.  I know Stetson Copus won all three, I think one of the Moylan girls...

Reserve Grand was a Chopping Wood from Ks.

I knew what you were referring to.  I was advising you to not worry about grand overalls, figure out what combinations are raising calves that are making the sale.  I used a bunch of Heat Wave over the years and never really got diddledy.  I would stick a toe in that water before I jumped in...

It ain't about how many win a major - it's how many are good enough to make sales.  You are splitting hairs to fine if that's all you are judging "good" by.

Totally depends on the calf.
